Best offensive player

This really comes down to about three players right now. There have been a lot of contributions on the offensive side of the ball but three players stand out.

Certainly quarterback Kyler Murray’s numbers stand for themselves. He has 16 touchdown passes and 8 rushing touchdowns.

He’s thrown for 2,130-yards and rushed for 543-yards. He’s on pace to end the season with over 4,000-yards passing and 1,000-yards rushing.

Then there is receiver DeAndre Hopkins. He has 60 receptions already for 734-yards. He was leading the NFL in receptions until last week. He has just 3 touchdowns though.

The last candidate would be running back Kenyan Drake. If he hadn’t missed last week he could be a winner here too. He could play Sunday against the Bills but is considered a game-time decision.

Next. Cards face tough test in Bills on Sunday. dark

The clear winner here has to be Murray. He’s not only the best offensive player but the team’s current MVP. He is also in the running for NFL MVP.
